Connor McCaffery announces return for sixth year

Sports

April 22nd, 2022 by admin

Iowa senior guard Connor McCaffery announced on Friday that he will take advantage of an extra year of eligibility and return to the Iowa men’s baksetball team next year.

McCaffery has played in 134 career games for the Hawkeyes. He averaged 2.5 points and 2.5 rebounds per game coming off the bench last year. McCaffery had a team-best 5.0 assist-to-turnover ratio last season.

McCaffery shared the team’s Chris Street Award with Keegan Murray this season. The award is presented annually to a Hawkeye player, or players, who best exemplify the spirit, enthusiasm, and intensity of former player Chris Street.

March sports betting was up this year, but surpassed by other months

Sports

April 22nd, 2022 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – Gamblers bet more on sports in March of this year than last March — but the month fell short of being a record amount for the year. Racing and Gaming administrator, Brian Ohorilko says there was speculation of another record after the numbers from March of last year. “March of 2021, that was the highest month of handle for F-Y ’21. And so, so many thought that this March might be just as strong and you know, we still did see good numbers, but definitely less than what we were seeing the last winter,” Ohorilko says.

He says gamblers wagered more on sports before March Madness hit. “We actually saw stronger numbers during football season in September October November and December,” he says.  Ohorilko says it will take some time to determine what the actual sports betting trend is going to be. “It’s too early to tell if that is what we would expect during a normal basketball year where it’s a situation where maybe Iowans just will wager more on football than basketball,” Ohorilko says.

He says the March betting could be an indication of something else. “We’re seeing just kind of a cooling off in terms of player spend and sportsbook marketing and if that is maybe having an impact on some of the numbers, “Ohorilko says. There was a big push on to sign up sports gamblers last year with companies offering a lot of credits for new betters, and with those incentives down — the March betting didn’t surpass the fall numbers this year.

Sports bettors wagered more than 161 million dollars in March of 2021. That number was more than 233-million dollars this March.

Iowa baseball team visits No. 8 Rutgers beginning today (Friday)

Sports

April 22nd, 2022 by Ric Hanson

The Iowa Hawkeye baseball team has a difficult assignment with a visit to Big Ten leading Rutgers beginning this (Friday) afternoon. The eighth ranked Scarlet Knights have been the surprise of college baseball. They are 31-7 and had a 16-game win streak snapped with 9-7 loss mid-week loss to Princeton.

That’s Iowa coach Rick Heller. Rutgers is 11-1 in the Big Ten while the Hawkeyes have won five straight games and are 6-3 in the league race after sweeping Minnesota.

The Scarlet Knights rank in the top ten nationally in hitting, earned run average and fielding.

Heller says Rutgers is confident and has remained healthy.

The series begins with a single game this afternoon.

Iowa closes spring drills on Saturday

Sports

April 22nd, 2022 by Ric Hanson

Iowa running backs coach Ladell Betts says the competition between the Iowa and defense this spring has gotten heated at times. The Hawkeyes close out spring drills Saturday morning with an open practice in Kinnick Stadium.

Betts likes the way the offense has competed in practice.

There is a different look at running back. With Tyler Goodson leaving early to pursue an NFL career sophomores Gavin Williams and LeShon Williams are the featured backs. That duo combined for 140 yards of rushing in a Citrus Bowl loss to Kentucky.

LeShon Williams says the Citrus Bowl experience was a plus for both.

Williams on becoming a featured back during spring drills.
